I believe the "extensions" attribute is intended to make "dynamically discoverable" libraries available to maven plugins. In your case, probably what you want is <scope>provided</scope> which tells maven that the jar is needed for compilation and for tests, but that the environment the artifact will finally be deployed into already provides a copy of this so it should not be in the final bundle. Or maybe scope "optional" is what you are looking for. Again, optional jars are not in the final bundle although they are present in the classpath for compile and test phases.
